About Dave Weiss
Dave Weiss is co-founder and COO of Hatch, the connected sleep device company he started with his wife, Ann. Hatch has shipped its IoT products into more than two million homes. The company famously appeared on Shark Tank and later raised venture capital, and Weiss runs the product development organization spanning product management, engineering, design, and QA.
Weiss started his career as a self-described medium engineer who turned out to be a good explainer of what engineers do, which pulled him into translator roles between technical and non-technical teams. He took a detour to teach high school math and computer science, an experience he credits with sharpening his ability to convey technical concepts to people without context. He later became CTO at BabyCenter, where his scope expanded into product, marketing, and design before he co-founded Hatch and moved into the COO role.
